The Fortress Resort & Spa

Modeled after the Fort in Galle, The Fortress Resort & Spa welcomes you with a historic ambiance. Elements of colonial style and Sri Lankan tradition are reflected in the architecture. The U-shaped main building stretches along the beach, separated only by the sparkling pool landscape. As a member of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World, guests lack nothing in terms of comfort. Thanks to a reef in front of the hotel, the sea is suitable for swimming all year round.

Koggala is a small, still relatively undeveloped fishing village with a long sandy beach. Just 15 km away is Galle, the bustling port city with its historic fort.

Three exclusive restaurants. "White" specializes in traditional Sri Lankan cuisine, with a touch of modern influences making dining an experience. "Duo" welcomes its guests with an elegant-romantic ambiance, and "Salty Snapper" serves fresh ocean fare with breathtaking sea views and direct beach access. Ayurvedic dishes are served individually according to the recommendations of the Ayurveda doctor. Special dietary requests (e.g., vegan, gluten-free) possible upon request.
